After Action Report
The Hornets survived the Trail Blazers 98-94. The Hornets won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Hornets' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Trail Blazers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim. The Hornets locker room is humming, and it showed. The Hornets rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
